Abby Li is a digital fashion designer based in London, specializing in laser-cut and digital print. The combination of the latest digital techniques and unique materials was presented in her collections.

Your collection was inspired by facets and diamond sparkles. How does this idea of diamond come to you?

The massive interest about the beauty of diamonds and gem stones.

You worked as a digital fashion designer. What does it consist in?

A game between digital software/technologies and fashion.

The diamonds sparkles come from a lighting effect. The clothes of your collection need a special light to be completely emphasized. In which environment/situation/moment do your clothes correspond to?

As long as there are lights lightened on the reflective materials, they will reflect lighting effect. Especially, when the light comes from the same direction near your eyes, the light reflection on the outfits will be much stronger.

The materials used for your collection are really futurist, they seem like space costumes. How did you create these luminous effects?

At the beginning of the presentation video of your collection we can see a woman going out of a shiny cocoon. Which kind of woman wear your clothes? A woman from the future? A half-human half-robot woman? A woman from another planet?

The women who are dare to wear and being unique. The concept of my video was to present a rough gem stone changed to a faceting diamond. It is like a butterfly is produced by metamorphosis from a caterpillar.
